Dressing for the '20s

Flirty frocks echoing the Roaring ’20s era of feminist modernity embody the newest collection from designer Rosanna Ocampo. Les annees folles, French for “the crazy years,” was the source of inspiration for this limited series of dresses. Rising hemlines and uneven hems baring the knee and revealing plenty of leg action evoke flapper fashion of the Jazz Age. Chic sophistication from this epoch resonates throughout this capsule collection.

Creations in asymmetrical draped lace with floral appliqués and minis in lace and tulle swathed in paillettes of pewter and platinum — all pieces to covet. Tiered tulle dresses in shades of plum maintain an air of femininity while keeping the frou-frou away. Nude lace and blush tulle numbers convey an ethereal look with a modern edge bolstered by black sequin embellishments. Showcased last Wednesday during the Prive Series at Members Only, these easy-to-wear designs with a twist will surely warrant some prime real estate in your closet.
